Last week I had the pleasure in being invited to Stagecoach Bus Stagecoach London Catford Bus Garage to deliver Tool Box Talks during an accident reduction day. The garage provided all drivers with Tea, Coffees and some nibbles whilst alot of literature was provided around drivers particular routes, whilst I delivered my talks, in particular around Fatigue. A lot of good questions were asked by the drivers & a lot of myths busted. Overall a great day delivering more talks. I also had the benefit of the local Safer Transport Team who could help with more localised issues If you or your company is interested in Tool Box Talks, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Appreciation campaign for bus staff A great afternoon spent at North Greenwich Bus Station where Transport for London unveiled their latest instalment of the campaign - ‘Thank you to our bus staff.’ Neighbourly Lab partnered with Transport for London to create this campaign to celebrate the brilliant bus staff we have in London. Videos and eye catching imagery have been produced to highlight the human sides of the bus staff, creating a link between them and our customers. Various speakers launched the campaign, including our Managing Director Paul Lynch, Andrew Edwards Ops Director from GoAhead London, Rosie Trew Head of Bus Service Delivery at TfL, Grainne O'Dwyer Head of Growth and Partnerships from Neighbourly Lab and Seb Dance Deputy Mayor for Transport. Four of our very own people from Stagecoach London are starring in this campaign - Marcus, Usman, Nikki and Rob. Their photographs are displayed in the bus station and their stories can be heard by scanning the QR codes which are displayed alongside their photos. It was great to see their reactions when they first saw the artwork of themselves, Usman said “I am absolutely overwhelmed with pride at my photograph which has been displayed at North Greenwich Bus station. I am grateful to Stagecoach and TfL for initiating such a great initiative to show our important role as Bus Drivers.” Marcus simply said “Wow” and couldn’t wait for his family to see it, especially his daughter who excitedly pointed at the photograph and said “That’s my Dad!” It really is a fantastic initiative which shines a spotlight on the essential role our drivers play in London - we’re extremely proud to have our people featured in this campaign and would encourage anyone in the area to take a look 🙌 Stagecoach Bus Stagecoach Group Limited #appreciation #londonbuses #thankyou

A massive thank you to Michael Collins for visiting our Leyton Garage last week to deliver a ‘Tool Box Talk’ to our people which has been designed specifically for us. It’s a fantastic initiative which has received lots of great feedback, encouraged positive conversations and helped to expel myths. The session gave our people the opportunity to ask lots of questions and is a huge step forward to working closer with the Safer Transport Team. We look forward to welcoming them back for future sessions and hope that these visits can be accommodated at more of our garages very soon 🙌 #workingtogether #londonbuses

Commemorating 7/7 Bombings 
Today (7 July) is the 19th anniversary of the 2005 London bombings. Some people may not be aware of this, but it was a Stagecoach London bus, a number 30 at Tavistock Square, that was notably among the transport services targeted by terrorists that day. 
To commemorate the anniversary George Psaradakis, who drove the bus that day and still works for us, and Paul Lynch will be in attendance alongside Transport for London colleagues to lay a wreath, as well as hold a minute's silence at Tavistock Square this morning at 09:47, the time of the attack. 
Our Spirit of London bus is the successor to the bus involved in the incident and is also at the service today, driven by Michael Plummer. 
Wherever you are today, please spare a quiet moment if you can, to mark the anniversary honouring the memory of those who tragically lost their lives, as well as the bravery of the survivors. #remembering7/7 #neverforget #londonbuses
